Do you not have a scrollwheel on your mouse, because you should be able to scroll down when your cursor is over the widgets.

I guess if you don't have a scrollwheel on your mouse you are SOL. The arrow keys don't work, nor page down, nor space, nor enter, nor tab...
 
Yes, got a scroll wheel on my Kensington Trackball. NO, the window does not scroll with my trackball scroll wheel. Why does your's?
 
If I put my cursor over to the left where the list of widgets are, it will not scroll, but if the cursor is over the widget windows, like where the S-M-L is, then it scrolls.
 
I guess you could also navigate by clicking the items in the list, but once you click on one, there's no way to make them all visible again. Not very accessible UI.
 
Miracle. Thank you. Another Apple innovation. Apple destroyed the fun of using Big Sur Apple Photos when the destroyed saving sorting, and movement within albums. And they want to make cars. Can you imaging driving a car that depends upon working Apple software? Grab your knees!!!
 
I guess the reason none of the navigation keys work is because the search box is automatically selected and can't be deselected. The search box is to search through the list directly below it. Wow, there's just so many mistakes in that window it's crazy.

I just updated from 10.9. How long have those widgets been around? Is that new for Big Sur?
